Change is constant and unavoidable.
It’s a leader’s job to ensure it’s an upgrade, not just an update.
There are no easy answers.
It’s a leader’s job to see the forest and the trees.
Everyone needs support to unlock their full potential.
Good coaching and consulting can be transformative to your perspective, your effectiveness, your balance, and your outcomes.
UNLOCK YOUR
FULL POTENTIAL
As a founder, leader, and scaler of thriving organizational teams, practices, and transformation, I’ve built highly effective academic and support programming, long-term financial sustainability, operational excellence, and the ability to navigate political ecosystems and organizational change.

Board Chair of People's Prep & COO at Tinkercast
“Keith was so good at guiding me in analyzing old habits and developing new ones that stuck and really influenced change. He also listens carefully to understand my needs and help me solve my problems.”
"In what could have been a completely chaotic time, Keith not only kept all the spinning plates from falling, he made it look easy. We were planning for a merger, buying a building, preparing for a capital campaign, and running a school. Keith kept the stakeholders engaged but not distracted, made sure the leadership team and board were on the same page and well-equipped to navigate the massive changes, and balanced acknowledging what had been while launching what was coming."
